All this has come on us, Yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant.
18
Our heart has not turned back, Neither have our steps declined from your way,
19
That you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death.
20
If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21
Won`t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
